Description
Human rebels fight to overthrow the alien occupation in this epic graphic novel based on the hit video game XCOM 2.
It’s 2035 and the war is over. For two decades, the alien invaders have lived side by side with their human conquests, preaching peace and coexistence, and slandering the human forces that fought to repel them. They think they’ve won the war. They think this planet is theirs. They think XCOM is finished.
They’re wrong.
Set in the action-packed world of XCOM and incorporating elements from the game, XCOM 2: FACTIONS expands the universe of the successful game franchise. Featuring sharp, dynamic artwork from top comics artists, this original story is the beginning of an exciting new comics series perfect for XCOM players and sci-fi adventure fans.
